Which Orlistat Option is Right for You?
Online Prescription Process for Orlistat, Xenical & Alli
Getting your orlistat prescription online through EverydayMeds is straightforward. Complete our clinical questionnaire covering your medical history, current medications, and weight management goals. A UK-licensed prescriber reviews your information and determines which option may be most suitable - whether that's generic orlistat 120mg, branded Xenical 120mg, or lower-strength Alli 60mg. Once approved, your medication is dispensed by our GPhC-registered pharmacy and dispatched for next-day delivery.
Comparing Your Options: Orlistat vs Xenical vs Alli
All three medications contain the same active ingredient - orlistat - but at different strengths and price points. Generic orlistat 120mg and Xenical 120mg are clinically equivalent prescription-only medicines that work by blocking approximately one third of dietary fat absorption. The key difference is cost - generic orlistat offers significant savings with 4-week supplies from £29.69 compared to Xenical at £38.69 (both with EDM10). Alli contains orlistat 60mg - half the prescription strength - making it a lower-dose option for those preferring a gentler starting point.
Prescription Orlistat 120mg - Best Value Option
Our generic orlistat 120mg capsules provide the same clinical effect as branded alternatives at exceptional value. Following online prescriber approval, prices start from £15.20 for a 2-week supply (42 capsules) with code EDM10. Longer supplies offer better value: 12-week treatment (252 capsules) costs £86.39 with discount - saving over £30 compared to Xenical. Each capsule contains 120mg orlistat and should be taken three times daily with main meals containing fat.
Xenical 120mg - Branded Option
Xenical is the original branded version manufactured by Roche. It contains identical 120mg orlistat to generic versions but costs approximately £9 more per month. Some patients prefer the branded option for reassurance, though clinically both generic and branded 120mg formulations work identically. Our Xenical prices start from £19.35 for 42 capsules, rising to £116.09 for 12-week supplies (both with EDM10 discount). Like generic orlistat, Xenical requires prescription approval following clinical assessment.
Alli 60mg - Lower Strength Alternative
Alli provides orlistat at 60mg strength - half that of prescription versions. This lower dose may result in milder gastrointestinal effects while still supporting weight management alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet. Alli pricing reflects the lower dose, with 4-week supplies from £26.09 and 12-week treatment costing £116.99 (with EDM10). The dosing remains three capsules daily with main meals.
Clinical Suitability Assessment
Our UK-licensed prescribers assess whether orlistat treatment is appropriate based on your BMI, medical history, and weight-related health factors. Generally, prescription orlistat 120mg (generic or Xenical) may be suitable for adults with BMI 30 or above, or BMI 28+ with conditions like type 2 diabetes or high blood pressure. Treatment must always be combined with a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet and increased physical activity for optimal results.
